Mike--

    The OS/2 "equivalent" comand (from the command line) is:  "fdisk
/newmbr </disk n>" (this last part is required only if you have more
than one hard drive (not partition) in your system.  From the OS/2
command line, enter "help fdisk" (without quotes) for more information. 
From experience, it works!

Hope this helps.
